Thank you, everyone

The links that that were shared are 'pretty' close to my pattern. I do like the idea that the 'bag' is removable, mine is not. I use regular rice for the pin cushion, so it would be a mess if one tried to wash them. So the velcro (hook & loop) or button is a great idea.

again thanks for the kudos

Oh This is great! I have been trying to think what the heck to buy/make my next door neighbor for her birthday this spring. She is a quilter, so this will be great! I will just add some pattern, blades, needles and a few fat quarters .. oh yeah! Thanks ever so much.

The gift thread catchers you made for your retreat are just so nice. there are some Lucky Ladies in that one!

Hi,

Where did you find your strapping plastic for the thread catcher?

I just love the thread catchers and I have one stored in a cute basket so when I am sewing the hexagons will have my basket with me at all times.
